The 9pm Polar Political Peregrination with Dr Liz Buchanan

The 9pm Edict

In the final episode of the Edict’s Late Winter Series, we discuss Antarctic geopolitics with Dr Elizabeth Buchanan from the Australian War College. There's a lot more to it than snow, penguins, and coloured lights in the sky.
We talk about krill, the secret Nazi bunkers, illegal fishing, the Antarctic Treaty System, China's interest in Antarctic resources, and how one Russian fishing vessel was faking its AIS beacon data to cover its tracks. There's even a fascinating fact about chess.
